Delta, Air France, KLM & Most Airlines Won’t Allow Rabbits to Travel Internationally – You Suck
6, May 2012I found out disappointing news from my favorite airline, Delta. They no longer accept rabbits as checked baggage internationally. Only on *some* domestic flights will they allow rabbits in the cabin. Which ones? Call them and figure it out yourself. This is very disappointing for me since I have in the past traveled with Delta [...]
A couple weeks ago we decided to take a ski bus to Romme to ski for the day. The bus pass includes a ski pass and it’s an economical way to go skiing for the day that’s not a mole hill in Stockholm. I spent most of the three hour bus ride staring out the [...]
World’s Largest Bunny Needs Home
27, Sep 2011First off, I saw him! I saw the world’s largest kanin (rabbit) in Stortorget, Örebro. He was wonderful!! Photos are a bit dark, sorry. But look at his size! Now the sad part, he needs a new home. Very badly. He was first to be taken down on Sept 25th but the city extended his [...]

Stockholm is not a cheap city to visit on a budget. It’s almost an irony to say “Stockholm on a budget” because well, it can involve kebabs, pizza, and really disgustingly cheap stor stark beer or lättöl (light alcohol content beers). Alas, there is some relief during the summertime in Stockholm. Many museums have free [...]
Recipe for an Absolut Summer
29, Jun 2010It was Monday after Midsommar and I had nothing better to do than visit the museum with Andrew and his family who are here to visit Stockholm. After two hours in the museum (more on that later), we headed to the Absolut Ice Bar near central station. It was 25C outside and sunny in Stockholm. [...]
Little Midsommar Frogs
25, Jun 2010Små grodorna, små grodorna är lustiga att se. Små grodorna, små grodorna är lustiga att se. Ej öron, ej öron, ej svansar hava de. Ej öron, ej öron, ej svansar hava de. Kou ack ack ack, kou ack ack ack, kou ack ack ack ack kaa. Kou ack ack ack, kou ack ack ack, kou [...]
Best Bars and Pubs to Visit in Stockholm
12, Apr 2010Now that spring is arriving, Stockholmers will hit the streets in droves from their 6 months of hibernation in the catacombs. Whether you want the hole in the pub in Stockholm or an upscale diva’licious bar, Stockholm has the selection of places to drink. Upon first glace, you may only see the super posh and [...]
Ryanair & Snow Adventures at Skavsta Airport
24, Feb 2010This week in Stockholm, traveling anywhere is a bad idea. The weather has been so bad that it’s better to stay at home than go to work, a so called, snödag. Schools were closed, and those who braved the weather took an adventure through the city to get home. Cuz of course SL, the local [...]

Swedish Christmas Travels
5, Jan 2010On the 23rd morning, Þorbjörn and I, and the rest of Sweden began our journey for Christmas break. This year, we traveled to Sälen, a ski town in central Sweden, close to the Norwegian border. To get there, we had to take a bus. Luckily a direct bus. Because coming back to Stockholm we would [...]
Iceland: A Trip around the Ring Road
30, Sep 2009In spring 2005 I visited Iceland for the first time. I won an auction for two tickets and two nights at the IcelandAir flagship hotel for $1000 from the Cal Alumni Assoc. Being naturally crazy, I dragged a friend to Iceland for a week at the end of April. Then, in August 2007, I returned [...]
